Summary
"I didn't want to cause a scene." Her face registered a sombre and impatient annoyance. She scuffed the corridor floor with the heel of her shoe. Personally, she was plenty ready for a pint and a miserable evening alone, but the Doctor had not been trained up in the human tendency to consider alcohol and regret natural bedfellows and she felt getting drunk might reinforce his impression of her callousness. "I can't do this anymore, Doctor."

Liz Shaw hates goodbyes almost as much as the Doctor.

Summary
"We did it," murmured Esther.
As though to emphasize her point, the Iblis computer system winked off without fanfare. The lighted panel on the console grew dark, the plexiglass and polycarbonate interface becoming as much a dusty relic as everything else in the bowels of the tomb: knowledge scrawled in dead languages and hidden away for the catalogue of generations hence. Something for future treasure seekers to muse and mumble over...
She felt breath at her ear, lips against the top of her hair, and Esther nearly leapt out of her skin in surprise.
"Yes... yes, it would appear so, Miss Esther..."

Summary
"Yours are the words of a whipped dog, Sister Paula!" insists the silver-haired Enforcement Officer. There is anger in his voice, desperate anger, and an adamantine conviction. "A mongrel trained to snarl at every sin!"
Winter to summer, the seasons turn.
Plucked from the blackened ashes of a burning city, a girl is drowned in the waters of baptism, and a stranger emerges in her place.
In springtime, children are trained to pray, to plea forgiveness, and to kill.
During the stifling heat of summer, a boy shares a smile, and an unbreakable bond is forged.
When golden autumn falls, fate comes full circle in a distant Sodom.
And finally, after many years, a small winter of grace: past cruelties forgiven, a debt paid, and a destiny entwined.
Four seasons. Two decades. One story.
The Lady of Death, from the beginning...

Summary
This is what she always thinks of when they are at the gunmen’s: Where the Wild Things Are, an off-brand frat house, a basement lab, Robinson Crusoe, electrical fires, a high school AV club. Outerspace. Jail time for marijuana possession.

Summary
Deep down, Mulder knew that if they were entangled even more tightly, he’d eventually become more irritated than aroused by her voice. He’d hear it in reference to uneaten vegetables and unopened mail and unfolded laundry. That holy righteous rage of hers, that unquenchable fire that roared at him to be better and do better and live better, would illuminate not just his career but the entirety of his being. And he doubted he could live up to that scrutiny. After almost almost getting her killed any number of times, somehow Mulder knew that asking her to forgive more mundane betrayals would be the final straw. Abduction? Possession? Cannibalism? All in a day’s work. Leaving sunflower shells everywhere? That was a bridge too far. It was better, safer, sweeter, kinder to love each other the way they did. To keep some mystery alive, and with it her steadfast belief in him. Delaying consummation was delaying his inevitable disappointment of her.

Summary
Mulder gets a late-night tip from Frohike—an offhand rumor about a haunted manor in rural Wisconsin and a girl found dead under impossible circumstances. It’s thin, even by Mulder’s standards, but that’s never stopped him before. Scully agrees to go—because she always does—but the deeper they get into Albany’s local legends, the harder it becomes to tell what’s folklore, what’s fact, and what’s waiting for them at Timberline Manor.

Summary
Here were the bare facts:
- I. Scully was his friend.
- II. She was, in fact, the best friend he had ever had.
- III. He loved her in the way that many men love many women.
- IV. He loved her in a better way than that.
- V. He did not want her to suffer.
- VI. When she suffered, he wanted to be there.
Comfort can be hard to come by for two such strange and solitary creatures. What are federally-employed coworkers to do?
